Psychologists in Britain have
said that the last full week of January is the most depressing time of the
year, and have labeled the Monday of that week “Blue Monday”, the most
depressing day of the year Mondays are generally seen as the worst day of the
week because people feel grumpy(烦躁的) and tired at having to go back
to work after a weekend with a different sleep pattern
There are various reasons why more people feel depressed at
this time of year Many people have unpaid credit card bills for the Christmas
presents they bought As the party season is over, people feel stressed because
they have to go back to real life — work and commuting; they may be unhappy
with their body image after eating too many cakes, chocolates, and other food
at Christmas-time People may have already failed in their New Year’s plans,
such as giving up smoking The bad weather in January can also contribute to
people feeling fed up
Some companies are taking this quite
seriously and offering suggestions for all the staff who are feeling depressed
They hope that helping people as soon as there are signs of depression will
keep people from taking time off Evidence shows that unreasonable managers who
contribute to their staff feeling fed up at this time can expect an
uncooperative (不合作的) workforce
However, it’s not all bad! Many people feel
optimistic at this time — that things can only get better Psychologists offer
suggestions of how to fight against feeling blue These include spending 15
minutes doing a “gratitude exercise”, thinking about and writing down what you
are grateful for, such as health, family, friends and so on Taking up a new
hobby, doing some exercise, going to bed earlier, eating a healthy breakfast,
and listening to some cheerful music are all recommended (推荐) as ways to feel more
cheerful
